Feedback from Students:

The structure and delivery of course content attracted my attention. While the videos provided overall explanation of concepts, the book delved into detail along with practical examples. Not to mention, the templates were really helpful in understanding the concepts. Overall, the course is comprehensive and really suits the title of the book "Accidental Project Manager: From Zero to Hero in 7 days". The course quickly builds up the fundamentals that are necessary for [traditional] project management. - Sarthak Chatterjee

I signed up for this course because project management is important for both my work and at home. The whole course is brief and to the point. The "jell with the team" and the work breakdown structure (WBS) segments were of the most interest to me. I recommend this course because it teaches the fundamentals of project management and provides a solid foundation for learning more about project management. - Alaa Alsafadi
